1 Webinar 1 Electrical 2 1
2 Webinar Introduction An average of one worker is electrocuted on the job every day There are four main types of electrical injuries: Electrocution (death due to electrical shock) Electrical shock Burns Falls 3 Qualified Employee Over 50% of electrocutions and shocks result from workers performing electrical work for which they are not qualified to do. Because Stanley changed the light bulbs in the plant for the last ten years does not make Stanley the company s electrician. Employers are required to create and keep on file written documentation that attests to the workers ability to perform electrical work in the company facility. Be it through licensing, education or experience. 4 2
3 Webinar For the rest of us.. Awareness and vigilance are the order of the day. Simple household appliances carry enough amperage to stop a human heart. Industrials work settings present many various electrical hazards. Safety awareness training is required to help protect workers from various electrical hazards. 5 Training Train employees working with electric equipment in safe work practices, including: De-energizing electric equipment before inspecting or making repairs Using electric tools that are in good repair Using good judgment when working near energized lines Using appropriate protective equipment 6 3
4 Webinar Dangers of Electrical Shock Currents greater than 75 ma* can cause ventricular fibrillation (rapid, ineffective heartbeat) Will cause death in a few minutes unless a defibrillator is used 75 ma is not much current a small power drill uses 30 times as much Defibrillator in use * ma = milliampere = 1/1,000 of an ampere 7 Electrical Shock Received when current passes through the body Severity of the shock depends on: Path of current through the body Amount of current flowing through the body Length of time the body is in the circuit LOW VOLTAGE DOES NOT MEAN LOW HAZARD 8 4
5 Webinar How is an electrical shock received? When two wires have different potential differences (voltages), current will flow if they are connected together In most household wiring, the black wires are at 110 volts relative to ground The white wires are at zero volts because they are connected to ground If you come into contact with an energized (live) black wire, and you are also in contact with the white grounded wire, current will pass through your body and YOU WILL RECEIVE A SHOCK 9 How is an electrical shock received? (cont d) If you are in contact with an energized wire or any energized electrical component, and also with any grounded object, YOU WILL RECEIVE A SHOCK You can even receive a shock when you are not in contact with a ground If you contact both wires of a 240-volt cable, YOU WILL RECEIVE A SHOCK and possibly be electrocuted 10 5
6 Webinar Electrical Burns Most common shock-related, nonfatal injury Occurs when you touch electrical wiring or equipment that is improperly used or maintained Typically occurs on the hands Very serious injury that needs immediate attention Google Electrical Injuries then images. 11 Falls Electric shock can also cause indirect or secondary injuries Workers in elevated locations who experience a shock can fall, resulting in serious injury or death 12 6
7 Webinar Extension Cords Can act as Tripping hazards 13 Electrical Terminology Current the movement of electrical charge Resistance opposition to current flow Voltage a measure of electrical force Conductors substances, such as metals, that have little resistance to electricity Insulators substances, such as wood, rubber, glass, and bakelite, that have high resistance to electricity Grounding a conductive connection to the earth which acts as a protective measure 14 7
8 Webinar Grounding Hazards Some of the most frequently violated OSHA standards Metal parts of an electrical wiring system that we touch (switch plates, ceiling light fixtures, conduit, etc.) should be at zero volts relative to ground Housings of motors, appliances or tools that are plugged into improperly grounded circuits may become energized If you come into contact with an improperly grounded electrical device, YOU WILL BE SHOCKED 15 Inadequate Wiring Hazards A hazard exists when a conductor (the wire) is too small to safely carry the current Example: using a portable tool with an extension cord that has a wire too small for the tool The tool will draw more current than the cord can handle, causing overheating and a possible fire without tripping the circuit breaker The circuit breaker could be the right size for the circuit but not for the smaller-wire extension cord Wire Gauge WIRE Wire gauge measures wires ranging in size from number 36 to 0 American wire gauge (AWG) 16 8
9 Webinar Overload Hazards If too many devices are plugged into a circuit, the current will heat the wires to a very high temperature, which may cause a fire If the wire insulation melts, arcing may occur and cause a fire in the area where the overload exists, even inside a wall 17 Electrical Protective Devices These devices shut off electricity flow in the event of an overload or ground-fault in the circuit Include fuses, circuit breakers, and ground-fault circuit-interrupters (GFCI s) Fuses and circuit breakers are overcurrent devices When there is too much current: Fuses melt Circuit breakers trip open 18 9
10 Webinar Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter This device protects you from dangerous shock The GFCI detects a difference in current between the black and white circuit wires (This could happen when electrical equipment is not working correctly, causing current leakage known as a ground fault.) If a ground fault is detected, the GFCI can shut off electricity flow in as little as 1/40 of a second, protecting you from a dangerous shock 19 Some Examples of OSHA Electrical Requirements
11 Webinar Overhead Powerline Hazards Most people don t realize that overhead powerlines are usually not insulated Powerline workers need special training and personal protective equipment (PPE) to work safely Do not use metal ladders instead, use fiberglass ladders Beware of powerlines when you work with ladders and scaffolding 21 Cabinets, Boxes, and Fittings Junction boxes, pull boxes and fittings must have approved covers Unused openings in cabinets, boxes and fittings must be closed (no missing knockouts) Photo shows violations of these two requirements 22 11
12 Webinar Grounding Path The path to ground from circuits, equipment, and enclosures must be permanent and continuous Violation shown here is an extension cord with a missing grounding prong 23 Hand-Held Electric Tools Hand-held electric tools pose a potential danger because they make continuous good contact with the hand To protect you from shock, burns, and electrocution, tools must: Have a three-wire cord with ground and be plugged into a grounded receptacle, or Be double insulated, or Be powered by a low-voltage isolation transformer 24 12
13 Webinar Guarding of Live Parts Must guard live parts of electric equipment operating at 50 volts or more against accidental contact by: Approved cabinets/enclosures, or Location or permanent partitions making them accessible only to qualified persons, or Elevation of 8 ft. or more above the floor or working surface Mark entrances to guarded locations with conspicuous warning signs 25 Guarding of Live Parts Must enclose or guard electric equipment in locations where it would be exposed to physical damage Violation shown here is physical damage to conduit 26 13
14 Webinar Permissible Uses of Flexible Cords Examples Pendant, or Fixture Wiring Portable lamps, tools or appliances Stationary equipmentto facilitate interchange 27 Prohibited Uses of Flexible Cords Examples Substitute for fixed wiring Run through walls, ceilings, floors, doors, or windows Concealed behind or attached to building surfaces 28 14
15 Webinar Use of Flexible Cords More vulnerable than fixed wiring Do not use if one of the recognized wiring methods can be used instead Flexible cords can be damaged by: Aging Door or window edges Staples or fastenings Abrasion from adjacent materials Activities in the area Improper use of flexible cords can cause shocks, burns or fire 29 Clues that Electrical Hazards Exist Tripped circuit breakers or blown fuses Warm tools, wires, cords, connections, or junction boxes GFCI that shuts off a circuit Worn or frayed insulation around wire or connection 30 15
16 Webinar Summary Hazards Inadequate wiring Exposed electrical parts Wires with bad insulation Ungrounded electrical systems and tools Overloaded circuits Damaged power tools and equipment Using the wrong PPE and tools Overhead powerlines All hazards are made worse in wet conditions Protective Measures Proper grounding Using GFCI s Using fuses and circuit breakers Guarding live parts Proper use of flexible cords Training 31 Thank you for your attention! 32 16
